Joansie, my dear, sweet sister: You were so kind and gentle under that tough exterior. We all knew if you were busting that you liked the person, otherwise you ignored them.
You were the first one to try to help anyone in need but never wanted any thanks for it.
I am so proud of you, the cheerleader, honor student, beauty queen, accompished horseback rider, card shark, married to the school jock, college student, modeling at the winner's circle, secretary to how many?? headmasters at Darrow School for 30+ yrs and boy could you handle that '57 chevy..... yet SO humble.
I will always love and respect you. My heart is aching without you but I know that you will watch over me as you always did. Your spirit will be with me forever.
Your little sister, Melsie
